I get to do the December Daily Doodles this week. I am very excited about this. The first thing I ever said to Apollo was, and I quote "Hi, it's nice to meet you. May I do a guest doodle?" (There may also have been a few "pleeeeeease? Pleeeease? You're so great. Doodles are great. I'll love you forever"s and similar scattered in there.)

Kind fellow that he is, he said "Absolutely!" and signed me up for an Easter Easel guest spot, not knowing that I'd meant December! And so I did a bit of running around with my hands in the air going "I thought I had MONTHS oh dear oh dear why am I suddenly stupid and empty of interesting ideas?!" and came up with Hiding A Parrot, which was very fun, and just in tme.

This time, I am prepared, and there is an embarrassment of riches. Not only am I getting to do a doodle, I'm getting to do FIVE! The first one will be posted tomorrow at 4AM game time. I can't wait to see what you all come up with, clever pirates that you are. The doodles so far have been spectacular. I hope you all enjoy this week as much as I will.

Being an accounting of the Fifth Day of Perilous Adventures on the Cursed Isle of Knot Sayphe Atoll. Our heroes converge on a lagoon; Hephaestus is becoming a seasoned adventurer; Gaea is stealthy; a tragic romance; and finally, the meat of the story.

Previously, our intrepid heroine intrepidly did many intrepid things, following a shipwreck on the foggy shoals surrounding Knot Sayphe Atoll. While she has lost her original companions, she has acquired another in the form of a remarkably intelligent serpent.

Being the continuing chronicle of Ensign Gaea, currently stranded on an island, having been shipwrecked on her way to Knot Sayphe Atoll with her stout and loyal companions, Hephaestus, Galene, and Cronus. When we last saw her, she was plummeting from a tree into a stream occupied by venomous serpents!

Being a further account of the ill-fated voyage to the Cursed Isles, during which the Enterprising Stargazer, crewed by Hephaestus, Galene, Gaea, and Cronus, met with an unhappy fate after an encounter with strange meteorology and some pointy rocks.

This is the voyage of the brave sloop Enterprising Stargazer. The Federation of Pirates (Oceanmaster Division), having recently discovered strange new islands, commissioned Fleet Officer Hephaestus to put together a crew of intrepid subordinates to boldly go and explore those foreign shores. The following is an account of their adventure, with excerpts from the Logge of Chatte when relevant.
